A road construction worker from Crawford County was injured Tuesday afternoon, when the vehicle he was on was struck by a van in northern Iowa’s Worth County. The Iowa State Patrol says 27-year old Isaak Delgadillo Cervantes, of Denison, was transported by Lake Mills Ambulance to Mercy Hospital in Mason City following the crash, that happened at around 12:53-p.m., Tuesday.

Authorities say a 2015 Ford Transit van driven by 60-year old Dean Ward McFadden, of Shakopee, MN, was northbound on Interstate 35 in a road construction zone. The left lane of the road was closed, with workers present. McFadden apparently suffered from a medical condition that caused him to lose control of the van.

When his vehicle struck a 2004 Sterling road construction vehicle, Cervantes was thrown from the construction equipment and suffered minor injuries.
